If the touch pad is showing "Retract Time out Return Levelers for service" all you need to do is hit, enter and retract at the same time. That will clear that code. I confirmed this with our contacts at Lippert.

Let me know if that fixes the issue or if the error code returns.

Jamison, thank you for that. It did clear the code and error sign. However, several days later it came back. Is that a sign that there’s a bigger issue?

@Lisa Usually yes. The problem is typically a weak battery or wiring connections that need to be checked and retightened.
